==Generation== A CIL assembly and instructions are generated by either a compiler or a utility called the ''IL Assembler'' ([[ILAsm]]) that is shipped with the execution environment. Assembled CIL can also be disassembled into code again using the ''IL Disassembler'' (ILDASM). There are other tools such as [[.NET Reflector]] that can decompile CIL into a high-level language (e. g. C# or [[Visual Basic .NET|Visual Basic]]). This makes CIL a very easy target for reverse engineering. This trait is shared with [[Java bytecode]]. However, there are tools that can [[Obfuscated code|obfuscate]] the code, and do it so that the code cannot be easily readable but still be runnable.
